"Can I Really Do This?"
I’m sitting here listening to the rain from Tropical Storm Ophelia drumming on the leaves of the big maple tree outside my window, and working on my slides for this Thursday’s first Clickable Content Workshop.
(I love a rainy day from time to time. How about you?)
Anyhoo…yes, the Clickable Content Workshop will be kicking off on Thursday with a key skill: the 5-Sentence Story structure that you can use over and over to write story-based emails quickly…and on any topic. (Yes, you!)
But I know you have more questions about the workshop, so I've put together a new FAQ for you, including questions like
“Can I really tell a story in 5-sentences?”,
“No, I mean, me, can I?”,
“Will you help me find stories for my niche?”,
“How soon will I have something to show for this?” and
“How will I know if it’s working?”
So click on over and take a look at the answers, now.
If you’re an entrepreneur who wants to get paid, you really do need to spend some time learning about how the human brain works: and the human brain is primed for story. Stories are how we understand ourselves and the world around us...and the good news is: this is a learnable skill.
Check out the FAQ, then register for the Clickable Content Workshop
Let’s begin,

P. S. If you haven’t watched my story about what happened when I decided to write an email a week for a year (and the three types of stories I came to rely on) you can do that here. And then, sign up for the workshop, to learn how you can make this happen for you, with the least amount of angst and stress possible.

I was scrolling through my email, looking for things to delete, when I saw an email from a business friend. Out of loyalty, I opened it. The email was full of great, life-changing information. Sadly, what she wrote in the FIRST LINE guaranteed that almost no one would read it. What did she do wrong? And how can you avoid it? I’m glad you asked. I made you a video to explain, so that your emails won’t end up unread and in the trash. (it will also explain why there’s a cow in the title of this...
“How many emails can you write in a day?” The question shouldn’t have surprised me. I’m a creative writer and I help people with email marketing, after all. But I hadn’t really examined my own email-writing practice. So I’m doing the experiment now. How many emails can I write today, on a day I have set aside for batch-writing? I’ll let you know... I know this, though: writing goes much faster when you know what you want to say. If I’m writing a scene for a novel and I don’t know what I want...
A well-used bike rack outside an unassuming red-brick office building in Hanover, Germany is the only clue that the structure is full of students. Even less obvious is that something strange is going on inside, with Artificial Intelligence…and cats. The building is Hannover’s University of Veterinary Medicine and they’ve been working with researchers in israel to develop a machine learning algorithm to ‘read’ the cat’s facial expressions and assess their level of pain. Any good vet will tell...
